SABIC 2102X0 LDPE Resin

SABIC 2102X0 is an LDPE polymer produced by SABIC, suitable for various foam applications using chemical or physical blowing agents.

Physical Properties

  • Density: Determined by ASTM D1505, the density is 0.921 g/cc (0.0333 lb/in³), excluding pharmaceutical use.
  • Melt Flow Rate: Tested at 190°C with a 2.16 kg load per ISO 1133, the rate is 1.9 g/10 min, compatible with chemical/physical blowing agents.

Polymer Properties:

  • Base Material:Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE)
  • Key Features:
    • High melt strength for stable foam expansion in low-pressure or high-temperature processes.
    • Compatible with cross-linking agents to enhance dimensional stability and load-bearing capacity.
    • Suitable for open-cell and closed-cell foam structures, depending on application needs.

Applications:

The balanced and reliable properties of SABIC® 2102X0 make it an ideal material for a range of demanding film applications.

  • General Purpose Bags: Used for producing a variety of bags, including consumer bags, bread bags, fresh produce bags, and other general-purpose packaging.
  • Food and Textile Packaging: Its balanced strength and optical properties are well-suited for films used in both food packaging and textile wrapping, offering product protection and visibility.
  • Co-extrusion Films: The consistent processability and film properties make it a suitable component in multi-layer co-extrusion films where layers with different properties are required.
  • Shrink Films: Its good mechanical properties and processability also make it a viable option for certain shrink film applications.
